Selling land is one of the ways to get rich in almost every industrial era, and Hexi is not immune to this problem.
With developed industry and concentrated manufacturing industry, wages in Liangzhou City have also begun to rise. Especially after Ye An proposed the minimum monthly salary standard, the minimum wage in Liangzhou City has been raised to a very high level, even higher than the labor income in Tokyo City.
Be higher.
This means that the income of the people in Liangzhou Prefecture has begun to surge. As their income has increased, their purchasing power has naturally increased, and consumption is no longer a problem. Moreover, the selling price of Hexi's goods in Hexi is much lower than in other places, and the exported goods are due to transportation problems.
, the cost problem began to increase continuously.
Then the dividends of manufacturing came. Unlike later generations, Hexi is now the only region in the world that has mastered industrialized production and is also the only region with strong trade.
Commodities from Hexi are constantly exported to the Song Dynasty, Xixia, Liao Dynasty and the Western world, and factories do not have to worry about transportation problems at all.
The government-run Liangzhou Kuaiyi was responsible for transportation issues, and Liangzhou Kuaiyi had a large number of mercenaries to hire, so the factories, workers, Liangzhou Kuaiyi, and even the mercenaries all made profits.
Everyone is making money, and they are all making other people’s money, so won’t they themselves become rich?
Hexi's prosperity is based on material prosperity and export prosperity. It is the strong trade surplus like a tsunami brought about by import and export.
The wealth in Hexi was something that the traditional Han people could not understand and could not understand. Under Ye An's guidance, Hexi's policy was to subsidize agriculture through industry.
Agriculture is the basis of industry in any era, especially in the current period. Only by filling the stomach can other things be enriched, and this also makes agriculture the most heavily subsidized existence in Hexi.
If the output per mu of land is not a cash crop, the Hexi Agricultural and Food Administration will subsidize it at a price of 80 cents per mu. This is real money that can really come into the hands of farmers, not just words.
publicity.
If you have ten acres of land in your hand, you can get a subsidy of 800 cash from the Agricultural and Food Administration during the summer and autumn taxes. Don’t underestimate this 800 cash. This is a qualitative leap. After all, the value of the grain produced is not even counted. The government
Just 800 yuan of subsidies for nothing!
In this way, some farmers have begun to gradually transform and turn their land into cash crops. Why? Because they will earn more!
As a result, grain prices will increase, but workers' income prices will also increase. The increase in grain prices will not affect Hexi, so farmers who buy grain will have money again!
This is a truly virtuous cycle. When farmers are rich, workers are rich, and merchants are making money, consumption will naturally be stimulated. Low-price sales have become the main business model in Hexi. There is no way, you can't sustain it if you don't lower prices.
Others have lowered their prices!
Within Hexi, the market is only that big. Although the population has increased, so have the number of factories and shops. Products are not only competing on price, but also on quality.
If it is all used for export, that is not impossible, but taxation has become a big problem. It is better to digest part of it in Hexi and export part, so as to ensure maximum benefits!
Therefore, agriculture, industry, and commerce are in a mutually reinforcing model in Hexi. What's even more terrible is that after the popularization of education in Hexi and the publication of a large number of newspapers, everyone understood this truth.
This also makes Hexi the most advanced region in the world, leading the world in terms of system and productivity. In this case, culture will definitely become mainstream.
With abundant materials, other industries are also rising rapidly, among which the fastest is the entertainment industry. The singers of Xinjiang Prefecture, the shepherds of Tokyo City, the good horses and horses of Xixia, the ornaments of the Liao Dynasty, etc.
In Hexi, more Western poets and scholars came to communicate.
As a result, rich people from all over the world were attracted, including not only rich people from the Song Dynasty, Xixia, and Liao Dynasties, but also a large number of rich people from the West.
As a result, land prices in Liangzhou Prefecture have naturally increased.
This is a series of chain reactions, and now it is fed back to Pei Chengwen and Ye An.
Of course it is possible to make money by selling land, and Ye An will not hesitate, but how to sell land and how to make money requires a lot of knowledge. Ye An will not allow the land prices in Liangzhou Prefecture to be skyrocketed.
Although it is prosperous for a while, it will not last long and will cause disasters after collapse.
For this reason, Ye An and Pei Chengwen convened officials from the "big government" to discuss countermeasures on how to sell the land in the inner city of Liangzhou Prefecture reasonably and without causing turmoil.
To put it more bluntly, it is how to ensure that the people of Liangzhou Prefecture and even Hexi are not affected to the greatest extent, and to earn money from wealthy foreigners to the greatest extent.
The final result of the discussion came out. After brainstorming among officials and even scholars, the best solution was reached, which was to purchase land centrally.
Limit the scope of land purchases by wealthy foreign businessmen to a unique area in the inner city, and provide a series of special policies to make it a high-end area for harvesting... no, receiving wealthy foreign businessmen.
In the eyes of every Hexi official, the income from land sales is not important. What is important is the wealth brought by these wealthy businessmen. How to retain these wealthy businessmen through land and make money from these wealthy businessmen is the most important thing.
The rich are not fools. Many people even become rich because of their clever minds. Do they come to Liangzhou just for consumption? Of course not, they want to enjoy the rich material and cultural life in Hexi while making money.
Since these people are here to make money, they need investment. The store is an investment, and the clerks in the store are an investment. If your production is placed in Dasong or other places, will the transportation cost be higher? It should be put
In Hexi!
As long as a factory is opened in Hexi, it will need to hire people from Hexi, pay taxes to Hexi, and spend money in Hexi. In the end, the money will stay in Hexi.
Under the guidance of Ye An, this meeting was very successful. Officials and scholars came up with suggestions and racked their brains to find ways to keep these wealthy foreigners and businessmen in Hexi without making people feel that they were losing money.
This is a decision to let go, and the next thing will be simple. Ye An and Pei Chengwen don't have to deal with the details, they can just leave it to the officials below. They are professionals...
Who doesn't want to catch a fish during work hours? Ye An enthusiastically stayed with Pei Chengwen to drink tea, and chatted about the transfer of the factory to Xinjiang Prefecture, and even to Anxi, which had not yet been completely stabilized.
However, just when the two of them picked up the tea cups and prepared to drink tea, they were attracted by the huge cheers. The concierge rushed into the flower hall where Ye An and Pei Chengwen were sitting, regardless of the surprised looks around them.
The old man who was barely breathing could actually jump to his feet and shout: "He... Qing Hai... Yan! He Qing... Hai... Yan!"
"Old Zhangtou, please speak more slowly. How could He Qing Haiyan be born again if you lose your breath?" Pei Chengwen was afraid that he would die in the flower hall, so he frowned and even asked him to sit down and talk.
However, Lao Zhangtou ignored this and knelt down in front of Ye An and said with a trembling voice: "Ye Hou, it's really the river Qing Haiyan. The Huangshui near Suiyuan Pass in Huangzhou is crystal clear!"
Just when Ye An was still thinking about the relationship between the clear water of Huangshui and the saint, Pei Chengwen next to him jumped up with a "ouch" in his throat.
Even if the tea cup in his hand fell to the ground and instantly fell into pieces, this guy didn't care. He kept chanting the same sentence over and over again: "The Yellow River is clear, and the saints will emerge!"
"The Yellow River is clear, and the saint comes out!"
